All About Men Valentine Card and Treat Bag
Once a year, I host an All About Men Stamp Camp. We love them, but sometimes it is hard to create for the men in our lives.
The event usually happens close to Valentine’s Day so of course I try to include a card for that occasion. This year, Stampin’ Up!’s Occasions Catalog makes our Valentine card-making easy-peasy!
This card uses the Happy Heart embossing folder in Smoky Slate, the Hearts framelits set, the Hello Life stamp set, the bowtie punch, and the Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack. We also used the postage stamp punch, the 1″ square punch, and the heart punch from the trio of shape punches.
I don’t know about you, but my guys love treats. So a coordinating treat bag was a must. That new Mini Treat Bag framelit is FABULOUS!!! I love the “for you” phrase. For this bag, i just used our basic Real Red cardstock. We used our clear envelopes to tuck the cookie inside the bag and tied it with white baker’s twine.

My customers made this card during my All About Men Stamp Camp last week. I actually tweaked it a bit and added gold brads on the Real Red piece about the heart corner punch. This card had pizzazz, but is was not too froo-froo for a male recipient.
The glittery Sending Love DSP is to die for! I can’t wait to use it all up! That heart corner punch is darling too! I absolutely love the font of Whimsical Words. I am hoping to see more of this style in next year’s catalog.
I enjoy hosting an All About Men Stamp Camp each year. Most of my customers find it difficult to stamp for the men in their lives. As I told my stampers, even a floral stamp set can be used to create a masculine-themed card if they plan their colors accordingly.
